Step-by-step explanation:

Let's put this into an equation with x being the unknown number. Then use the reversed order of operations to find the value of x.

x + -2 = -9

+ 2 + 2

x = -7

Answer:

x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Translate into an equation.

“A number” + -2 = -9

Assign “a number” to be “x”

X+-2=-9

Add 2 on both sides to even it out and get x

X-2+2=-9+2

X=-7

The number is -7. :)

A triangle has side lengths measuring 2x + 2 ft, x + 3 ft, and n ft.

brilliants [131]

Answer:

The correct option is A. x – 1 < n < 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle sum of any two sides is always greater than the third side.

Now, the sides of the triangle are given to be :

2x + 2, x + 3 , n

Now, first take 2x + 2 and x + 3 as two sides and the side of length n as third side.

By using the property that sum of two sides is always greater than the third side in a triangle.

⇒ 2x + 2 + x + 3 > n

⇒ 3x + 5 > n ......(1)

Now, take n and x + 3 as two sides and the side of length 2x + 2 as the third side of triangle.

So, by the property, we have :

n + x + 3 > 2x + 2

⇒ n > x - 1 ...........(2)

From both the equations (1) and (2) , We get :

x – 1 < n < 3x + 5

Therefore, The correct option is A. x – 1 < n < 3x + 5
